If you are a programmer and you want to create and develop new things for Mac, However, you are using windows and for windows programmer, we have various kinds of platforms where you can easily code and design any new thing. such as Virtual Studio Code is mostly used in Windows and many developers are coding in VS Code. But what about Mac Operating System, Therefore, in this article, I am going to show you how to install XCode on MacOS Mojave 10.14 using Windows.
Suppose you have installed MacOS Mojave on Virtualbox or Vmware using windows because you don’t have a Mac computer and you love to use Mac operating system, therefore, you installed MacOS on windows through Virtualization software. So, After that, you are looking for a great tool to develop an application or any other thing for Mac, iPhone, iPad, and iPod. Well, XCode developer is the best in Mac rather than all tools, therefore, I prefer you to download and install XCode and start your coding. it is easy to use and you can go with any projects, So, read the article top to toe and focus on each step in order to not face problems further.
What is XCode
Before going to install XCode on MacOS Mojave you have to know a little about XCode that what is XCode? Well, XCode is a development tool that developed by Apple to develop software for macOS like iOS devices, watchOS, and tvOS. Although you have other development tools to develop software, XCode is very handy and it is well-known since the first release. because when the latest version has released then every tool become easier to use and programmer prefer XCode rather than other development tools.
As we have different programming languages such as C, C++, JavaScript, Java, Ruby, Python, and many more. However, we have a higher programming language but as you know XCode is free software and it supports only beginning programs like C++, Java, Apple Script, ResEdit, and etc. Therefore, if you know one of the above programming languages then you can go with it on XCode because it will support only those programs.
UI testing: The first feature of XCode is UI testing, it means with unit testing, UI takes a look at the ability to put in writing scripts that mechanically test the computer program as if an individual is interacting with a virtual or a connected device. The scripts are not a part of the app code itself, however, they act with the new UI Automation API via JavaScript.
Swift UI: The next improvement of XCode is SwiftUI, it is a huge announcement in this year. However, SwiftUI is a new framework where you can easily create layouts using swift code. Moreover, XCode shows you a real app such as an interface viewer side by side while you edit the swift file.
Minimap: Minimap is an awesome feature that looks at the left of XCode and it will take you quickly to a specific part of your code. Minimap is much needed when you have a long code in XCode.
Rich Documentation: The other improvement of XCode is Rich Documentation, well the documentation looks nice in XCode.
Inline Diff: XCode provides an improved UI to show changes in each line of code based on version control.
Other XCode Features:
Swift Package Manager
Transform iPad Apps to Mac
Debugging and Simulators
Interface Builder
Source Editor
